Love the ☘️ Irish cadets at the funeral of President. John f Kennedy he loved them when he came to visit Ireland 🇮🇪 in 1963 and Jackie especially asked for them what a sad day not only for America but the world 🇮🇪 🇺🇸 ❤️ ☘️ ☘️
This perfectly executed Presidential funeral planned in Two days was flawless with Jackie in command. She assumed the role of President, and at the end of this horrific day, without food or drink for hours that day, she still managed to plan John's birthday. A Profile in Courage.
Even though it was not intentional, the one missed note in taps, I think, is symbolic. The stoic perfection of the funeral had at that moment, it's one emotional crack of heartache.
I always get a huge knot in my throat at 1:17:01 when the pallbearers did an about face and saluted the casket as they left JFK for the final time. From what I've read, this wasn't planned but was done bc they felt they had been with him for 4 days and didn't want to leave him for doing so meant that he was really gone from us and life was moving on without him in our world.
My life long friends dad was the US. Marine who was at the right front of President Kennedys Casket! He stood watch over the casket from the time it was brought back to the WH. Until president Kennedys funeral
I remember watching this on our small black and white TV ....I was 12 years old at the time .. Remember the adults asking one another who could do such a horrible thing .. Everyone was greiving ...
Stopping Neil Armstrong, it was a short step for the presidency of U.S.A; But their legacy of justice, of fighting for human rights, of racial integration, will be an eternal example and inspiration to continue defending these principles.
Who watching 4/11/20 what a great man JFK tried to do good for the country but the devil always busy, the military put on a great salute to President Kennedy they did a good job for a great President RIP JFK i wasn't even born then i can feel the loss and the pain.
Is there clearer footage than this? Just asking and wondering if CBS has that excellent first generation film as I think they pretty much used film in 63 rather than tape.
Seriously? When the pallbearers are taking the casket off the caisson (the TV announcer called it a hearse) they cut away and show the bagpipe players? Then, when the pallbearers are placing the casket on the lowering device, they cut away and show jets flying overhead? Two huge mistakes.
My dad was Navy Honor guard for President Funeral He Carried the presidential Flag Behind the Casket I was only 8 years old I was adopted Little Boy He didn't talk much . when he got home he was kind of somber all i know I hugged him and I love you daddy.

Tape came in 1958, but everything got literally thrown together for this. US Network TV had never covered anything for 4 days.

As always, the Irish were first on the field.

why were there no security guards with the president?
One of our greatest president. The buffoon in the white house could learn at lot.
not just a funeral he was a victim of a coup D etat
Is Cushing drunk?
Likely. I never could understand a word he said anyway.
Should watch how the British do it.
HY TODAVIÄME CONMUEBE QUE TRÏSTEÑ
I never noticed this...what is wrong with the priest!!!??? Is he DRUNK!!! WHAT AN AWFUL SPEAKER HE IS!!!
So agree!
Part of it is just how he talked. But I wonder about his being drunk. I wouldn't put it past him.
@@edmarsh8909 I'm inclined to agree with you.
